FROM WASHINGTON.
Interesting Incidents and Gossip.
XLIXth CONGRESS.
Senate.

WASHINGTON, January 2S.-Mr. Ed
munds, in presenting a memorial from
manufacturers and business men in Yer
mont for the repeal or reduction of the
internal revenue taxes, said many such
petitions had been presented. In pre-
senting this one and moving its refer
ence TO the Committee on Finance, he
wished to urge on the committee the i'm
pOrtance of the subject of reducing, II
not altogether repeating, this remnant OF
the unpleasantness of twenty-five years
ago. He should be glad to see the cOun-
try restored to such business conditions
as had existed before that time, and to
have the resources of the Government
obtained entirely from importations and
little incidental matters of land, &c, in
stead of keeping up the army of internal
revenue taX-gatherers, inspectors, and all
that sort of thing. He hoped the COM
mittee would take the matter into serious
consideration. Referred to the Commit
tee on Finance.
Mr.. Cameron presented the credentials
of Matthew Stanley Quay as Senator
from Pennsylvania for the term COM
mencing March 4, 1887. Placed on file.
Mr.. Malone presented numerous peti-
tions from Virginia manufacturers OF
and dealers in tobacco for the abolit on
of the tobacco tax, and submitted some
remarks in support of them.

WASHINGTON, January 2S.-Mr. Swim
burne, of New York, opposed the bill and
characterized the report of the commits
sion upon pleuro-pneumonia as unrelia-
BILE and untruthful, and denounced the
Chief of the Bureau of Animal Indus
try-the would-be national butcher-as
either decetful or ignorant.
Mr.. Warner, Of Ohio, opposed the
measure, declaring that he had never
known bill which so utterly ignored all
constitutional Limitations of the general
Government, and so completely trampled
upon all State authority He believed
that any State had a right to resist
such legislation, and predicted that the
Supreme Court would never decide it to
be constitutional The farmers could
attend to their own cattle better than
some fool in authority in Washington
could. Yet the theory upon which the
bill was based was that man picked up
somewhere and installed in handsomely
furnished Office in Washington could
manage the stock farms of the country
better than the farmers themselves could
manage them. Why not extend the pro-
visions Of the bill to the hog cholera and
the chicken cape?

plains of Saratoga and the battle fields
of Bemis Heights, expresses the victory

poses grand collection of representa-

and figures, pleasing as works Of art and
instructive as records OF the nations life,

feet the generations which will hereafter
visit the place.
At the base of the monument, consti-
tutinc the lower story, is room twenty
feet square, with entrances upon all
sides. \ staircase of oak leads by easy
descent from story to story until the
summit is reached. On each Of the four
sides of the exterior, at the second story,
is niche in which are placed on three
sides respectively the statues OF Gen.
Schuyler, Gen. Gates and Gen. Morgan.

rated. History corrohoratcs the fact
that when Gates had wcll-nigh given up
all for lost, Benedict Arnold. who had
before thrown up his commission as IN
officer in the patriot army, suddenly
dashed upon the scene, assumed COM
mand, and led the troops up Bcmis
Heights, while the redcoats were mown
down like grass before the scythe.
Over the entrances gables rise to the
height of forty-two feet, and at each cor
ner of the monument 4 granite eagle with
folded wings and Of colossal size is
placed. The interior surface Of the mon
umcnt is covered by q series of thirty six
bronze sculptures representing, in bas-
re;ie., characters, scenes and Incidents of
history. The first group in bronze repre-
sents the "Women Of the Revolution" :"
while opposite is seen "'i,he Ladies CT the
British Court Next comes the con-
trast of the King and his Ministers, who
are devising methods for governing the
colonists, and the town meeting, where
an impassioncd orator urges resistance to
taxation. "The Rally Of the Heorlc"
and The British Army in the Wilder
ness are very characteristic and ey.
prcssive groups.
One of the most artistic groups is that
of Mrs. Schuyler, with her child cling
ing to her skirts and accompanied by her
little negro slave, as she sets fire to her
wheat field to prevent its use by the
British army. She shows herself worthy
to be the wife of General Schuyler, who,

The Force OF Habit.

It's an awful thing, force of habit.
It's accountable for a great deal Of
misery and great deal of happiness.
Most things are done from force OF
habit. Betting. drinking, loving, hat
ing, all become habits, and can't be got
over. 4 fellow goes courting, and it's
awfully pleasant. At first it's novelty
and fun, then it becomes habit, and
thev think it is love. The girl goes
away for a month. He pines for
week, and when she comes back she's
got out of the habit, and he's got into
the habit of courting another girl, and
